CORNELIUS O. JADWIN, OF HONESDALI], PENNSYLVANIA.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 124,492, dated March12, 1872.

Specification describing a new a and useful Improvementin FunnelAttachment to Liquid- Measures, invented by CORNELIUS G. JADWIN, ofHonesdale, in the county of NVayne and State of Pennsylvania.

My invention pertains to an improvement in the construction ofliquid-measures provided with funnel attachments, as will be hereinafterfully described.

In the drawing, Figures 1 and 2, represent respectively a side andplan-view of a measure, constructed according to my invention, and Fig.3 a plan-view of the blank, of which the main part of the funnel isformed. The last shows how the metal maybe economizedby utilizing thepiece cut out to fit the base of the funnel to the top of the measure,for forming the bottom of the measure. The scale of the diagram is muchless than that of the figures.

- A represents the body of the measure; B the main portion of thefunnel, and O the nozzle.

I make the part B of a piece of sheet-metal,

in the form of the diagrams, Fig. 3, which is done by bending up theparts D, so that the. ends E will meet and join together at the seam F,While the parts G extend around the top of the can, when the circularedge H is soldered to said top. The said blank being thus bent up theouter edges of the parts Gr 1) are raised to form the upper end or mouthof the funnel, and the edge of the semicircular notch I forms the holewhere the parts'E are joined, for the attachment of the nozzle, whichmay be soldered on or otherwise attached.

Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secureby Letters Patent- The plate D E G H I, of the form shown.

The above specification of my invention signed by me this 18th day ofNovember, 1871 CORNELIUS O. J ADWIN Witnesses:
